← ScienceWhich consequence results when waveguide impedance discontinuities cause reflections?
A)Increased standing wave ratio✓
B)Lowered characteristic impedance
C)Amplified forward power delivery
D)Reduced dielectric breakdown risk
💡 Explanation
The impedance mismatch creates reflections that interfere, because standing waves are generated through wave interference. Therefore, the standing wave ratio increases rather than providing better power transmission, because forward and backward power are no longer matched.
